    Hi

    I'd like to hook my Laptop with my Television and would prefer to do it without cables. Any idea how to do it?

    Thanks

    Do you want to stream data to it or mirror the laptop screen on it?

    Streaming Data please! Why, is there a difference?

    Does your TV have a wifi module? Some newer ones have them built in or Samsung ones you can buy a module.

    I have tried various streaming from my network with my SGS2 + HDMI adapter, or Raspberry Pi connected over wifi.
    Perhaps one of the Android powered "PC on a stick" devices might be worth a look: http://www.boards.ie/vbulletin/showthread.php?t=2056741146

    Do you have an Xbox 360 or PS3?

    If so, you can use this program to stream to them and play movies etc. on your tv.
